Change & passivity

I made mention recently that passive consumerism is the new psychological condition that has become rampant. Many people strongly resist the notion that they are passive consumers. They like to see themselves as moral arbiters instead. They've now realized that anything to do with "change" is trick, perhaps even a force for evil.

The discourse of the left has become less practical, more resigned and moralistic.   "Don't you realize that our original trusting natures have been traumatized by too much politics?"   Such original natures were no doubt pure and discerning, but lost their purity and capacity to distinguish right from wrong the minute they accepted novelty or innovation.

The only way to restore the purity of the original nature is by a reinforced will to embrace passivity.

Otherwise, trauma and disappointment lie around the corner.

But, trauma and disappointment also follow those who embrace a sense of nothing as their morality. Not voting, in order to prove your moral purity, is a sign of being dead in the head.
